  February 4, 2019 - Weekly tasting group RWP #319; 4 random flights of 3 wines (@ BS): Herbs, ripe berries and cherries and some mushrooms in the bouquet. On the palate juicy red and dark berries, mint, vanilla, some bitterness, good acidity and slightly sticky tannin.

  August 13, 2018 - Delicious as usual. No formal note but this cooler year really made a nice wine at this property.

  May 9, 2016 - Deep red with brighter rim. Black currant, tar, kudzu, bramble, black pepper and licorice on the nose. The wine opens up over 2hours, getting dusty. It has intense aroma, soft tannin but lacks of acidity, freshness. Jammy and simple structure in comparison with my expectation. As thinking their illustrious name in Bourgogne, I feel somewhat disappointment. Find other hidden treasure in Languedoc at lower price. Alc. 13.5%

  February 10, 2016 - Intense dark fruit when opened, but settles and shows more dried herbs and earthiness. Lovely structure with great transparency and a refreshing lift. Long finish and elegant tannins. The Burgundian influence seems obvious. What a great way to bring out the potential in century old carignan and grenache vines.

  April 14, 2015 - Still some tannin and baby fat. Some grip. Should resolve in 2020.
  
  Revisit then, drink or hold.
